A panic was seen in the following sitation.
There are two threads running on the system. The first thread is a system
monitoring thread that is reading /proc/modules. The second thread is
loading and unloading a module (in this example I'm using my simple
dummy-module.ko). Note, in the "real world" this occurred with the qlogic
driver module.
When doing this, the following panic occurred:

Consider the two processes running on the system.
CPU 0 (/proc/modules reader)
CPU 1 (loading/unloading module)
CPU 0 opens /proc/modules, and starts displaying data for each module by
traversing the modules list via fs/seq_file.c:seq_open() and
fs/seq_file.c:seq_read(). For each module in the modules list, seq_read
does
op->start() <-- this is a pointer to m_start()
op->show() <- this is a pointer to m_show()
op->stop() <-- this is a pointer to m_stop()
The m_start(), m_show(), and m_stop() module functions are defined in
kernel/module.c. The m_start() and m_stop() functions acquire and release
the module_mutex respectively.
ie) When reading /proc/modules, the module_mutex is acquired and released
for each module.
m_show() is called with the module_mutex held. It accesses the module
struct data and attempts to write out module data. It is in this code
path that the above BUG_ON() warning is encountered, specifically m_show()
calls
static char *module_flags(struct module *mod, char *buf)
{
int bx = 0;
BUG_ON(mod->state == MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED);
...
The other thread, CPU 1, in unloading the module calls the syscall
delete_module() defined in kernel/module.c. The module_mutex is acquired
for a short time, and then released. free_module() is called without the
module_mutex. free_module() then sets mod->state = MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED,
also without the module_mutex. Some additional code is called and then the
module_mutex is reacquired to remove the module from the modules list:
/* Now we can delete it from the lists */
mutex_lock(&module_mutex);
stop_machine(__unlink_module, mod, NULL);
mutex_unlock(&module_mutex);
This is the sequence of events that leads to the panic.
CPU 1 is removing dummy_module via delete_module(). It acquires the
module_mutex, and then releases it. CPU 1 has NOT set dummy_module->state to
MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED yet.
CPU 0, which is reading the /proc/modules, acquires the module_mutex and
acquires a pointer to the dummy_module which is still in the modules list.
CPU 0 calls m_show for dummy_module. The check in m_show() for
MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED passed for dummy_module even though it is being
torn down.
Meanwhile CPU 1, which has been continuing to remove dummy_module without
holding the module_mutex, now calls free_module() and sets
dummy_module->state to MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED.
CPU 0 now calls module_flags() with dummy_module and ...
static char *module_flags(struct module *mod, char *buf)
{
int bx = 0;
BUG_ON(mod->state == MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED);
and BOOM.
Acquire and release the module_mutex lock around the setting of
MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED in the teardown path, which should resolve the
problem.
Testing: In the unpatched kernel I can panic the system within 1 minute by
doing
while (true) do insmod dummy_module.ko; rmmod dummy_module.ko; done
and
while (true) do cat /proc/modules; done
in separate terminals.
In the patched kernel I was able to run just over one hour without seeing
any issues. I also verified the output of panic via sysrq-c and the output
of /proc/modules looks correct for all three states for the dummy_module.

Commit b0c29f79ecea (futexes: Avoid taking the hb->lock if there's
nothing to wake up) changes the futex code to avoid taking a lock when
there are no waiters. This code has been subsequently fixed in commit
11d4616bd07f (futex: revert back to the explicit waiter counting code).
Both the original commit and the fix-up rely on get_futex_key_refs() to
always imply a barrier.
However, for private futexes, none of the cases in the switch statement
of get_futex_key_refs() would be hit and the function completes without
a memory barrier as required before checking the "waiters" in
futex_wake() -> hb_waiters_pending(). The consequence is a race with a
thread waiting on a futex on another CPU, allowing the waker thread to
read "waiters == 0" while the waiter thread to have read "futex_val ==
locked" (in kernel).
Without this fix, the problem (user space deadlocks) can be seen with
Android bionic's mutex implementation on an arm64 multi-cluster system.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu
Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
"Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many
years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other
inconsistent operations.
This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().
Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().
This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up
with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
remove the obsolete accessors"

__get_cpu_var can paper over differences in the definitions of
cpumask_var_t and either use the address of the cpumask variable
directly or perform a fetch of the address of the struct cpumask
allocated elsewhere. This is important particularly when using per cpu
cpumask_var_t declarations because in one case we have an offset into
a per cpu area to handle and in the other case we need to fetch a
pointer from the offset.
This patch introduces a new macro
this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr()
that is defined where cpumask_var_t is defined and performs the proper
actions. All use cases where __get_cpu_var is used with cpumask_var_t
are converted to the use of this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().

[ARM specific]
These are generally replaced with raw_cpu_ptr. However, in
gic_get_percpu_base() we immediately dereference the pointer. This is
equivalent to a raw_cpu_read. So use that operation there.

Most of these are the uses of &__raw_get_cpu_var for address calculation.
touch_softlockup_watchdog_sync() uses __raw_get_cpu_var to write to

Convert uses of __get_cpu_var for creating a address from a percpu
offset to this_cpu_ptr.
The two cases where get_cpu_var is used to actually access a percpu
variable are changed to use this_cpu_read/raw_cpu_read.

In some cases we don't want hard lockup detection enabled by default.
An example is when running as a guest. Introduce
watchdog_enable_hardlockup_detector(bool)
allowing those cases to disable hard lockup detection. This must be
executed early by the boot processor from e.g. smp_prepare_boot_cpu, in
order to allow kernel command line arguments to override it, as well as
to avoid hard lockup detection being enabled before we've had a chance
to indicate that it's unwanted. In summary,
initial boot: default=enabled
smp_prepare_boot_cpu
watchdog_enable_hardlockup_detector(false): default=disabled
cmdline has 'nmi_watchdog=1': default=enabled
The running kernel still has the ability to enable/disable at any time
with /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog us usual. However even when the
default has been overridden /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog will initially
show '1'. To truly turn it on one must disable/enable it, i.e.
echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
This patch will be immediately useful for KVM with the next patch of this
series. Other hypervisor guest types may find it useful as well.

The kernel used to contain two functions for length-delimited,
case-insensitive string comparison, strnicmp with correct semantics and
a slightly buggy strncasecmp. The latter is the POSIX name, so strnicmp
was renamed to strncasecmp, and strnicmp made into a wrapper for the new
strncasecmp to avoid breaking existing users.
To allow the compat wrapper strnicmp to be removed at some point in the
future, and to avoid the extra indirection cost, do
s/strnicmp/strncasecmp/g.

We have a large university system in the UK that is experiencing very long
delays modprobing the driver for a specific I/O device. The delay is from
8-10 minutes per device and there are 31 devices in the system. This 4 to
5 hour delay in starting up those I/O devices is very much a burden on the
customer.
There are two causes for requiring a restart/reload of the drivers. First
is periodic preventive maintenance (PM) and the second is if any of the
devices experience a fatal error. Both of these trigger this excessively
long delay in bringing the system back up to full capability.
The problem was tracked down to a very slow IOREMAP operation and the
excessively long ioresource lookup to insure that the user is not
attempting to ioremap RAM. These patches provide a speed up to that
function.
The modprobe time appears to be affected quite a bit by previous activity
on the ioresource list, which I suspect is due to cache preloading. While
the overall improvement is impacted by other overhead of starting the
devices, this drastically improves the modprobe time.
Also our system is considerably smaller so the percentages gained will not
be the same. Best case improvement with the modprobe on our 20 device
smallish system was from 'real 5m51.913s' to 'real 0m18.275s'.
This patch (of 2):
Since the ioremap operation is verifying that the specified address range
is NOT RAM, it will search the entire ioresource list if the condition is
true. To make matters worse, it does this one 4k page at a time. For a
128M BAR region this is 32 passes to determine the entire region does not
contain any RAM addresses.
This patch provides another resource lookup function, region_is_ram, that
searches for the entire region specified, verifying that it is completely
contained within the resource region. If it is found, then it is checked
to be RAM or not, within a single pass.
The return result reflects if it was found or not (-1), and whether it is
RAM (1) or not (0). This allows the caller to fallback to the previous
page by page search if it was not found.

In locate_mem_hole functions, a memory hole is located and added as
kexec_segment. But from the name of locate_mem_hole, it should only take
responsibility of searching a available memory hole to contain data of a
specified size.
So in this patch add a new field 'mem' into kexec_buf, then take that
kexec segment adding code out of locate_mem_hole_top_down and
locate_mem_hole_bottom_up. This make clear of the functionality of
locate_mem_hole just like it declars to do. And by this
locate_mem_hole_callback chould be used later if anyone want to locate a
memory hole for other use.
Meanwhile Vivek suggested opening code function __kexec_add_segment(),
that way we have to retreive ksegment pointer once and it is easy to read.
So just do it in this patch and remove __kexec_add_segment() since no one
use it anymore.

Commit 458df9fd4815 ("printk: remove separate printk_sched buffers and use
printk buf instead") hardcodes printk_deferred() to KERN_WARNING and
inserts the string "[sched_delayed] " before the actual message. However
it doesn't take into account the KERN_* prefix of the message, that now
ends up in the middle of the output:
[sched_delayed] ^a4CE: hpet increased min_delta_ns to 20115 nsec
Fix this by just getting rid of the "[sched_delayed] " scnprintf(). The
prefix is useless since 458df9fd4815 anyway since from that moment
printk_deferred() inserts the message into the kernel printk buffer
immediately. So if the message eventually gets printed to console, it is
printed in the correct order with other messages and there's no need for
any special prefix. And if the kernel crashes before the message makes it
to console, then prefix in the printk buffer doesn't make the situation
any better.

Pull s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
"This patch set contains the main portion of the changes for 3.18 in
regard to the s390 architecture. It is a bit bigger than usual,
mainly because of a new driver and the vector extension patches.
The interesting bits are:
- Quite a bit of work on the tracing front. Uprobes is enabled and
the ftrace code is reworked to get some of the lost performance
back if CONFIG_FTRACE is enabled.
- To improve boot time with CONFIG_DEBIG_PAGEALLOC, support for the
IPTE range facility is added.
- The rwlock code is re-factored to improve writer fairness and to be
able to use the interlocked-access instructions.
- The kernel part for the support of the vector extension is added.
- The device driver to access the CD/DVD on the HMC is added, this
will hopefully come in handy to improve the installation process.
- Add support for control-unit initiated reconfiguration.
- The crypto device driver is enhanced to enable the additional AP
domains and to allow the new crypto hardware to be used.
- Bug fixes"

populate_seccomp_data is expensive: it works by inspecting
task_pt_regs and various other bits to piece together all the
information, and it's does so in multiple partially redundant steps.
Arch-specific code in the syscall entry path can do much better.
Admittedly this adds a bit of additional room for error, but the
speedup should be worth it.

The reason I did this is to add a seccomp API that will be usable
for an x86 fast path. The x86 entry code needs to use a rather
expensive slow path for a syscall that might be visible to things
like ptrace. By splitting seccomp into two phases, we can check
whether we need the slow path and then use the fast path in if the
filter allows the syscall or just returns some errno.
As a side effect, I think the new code is much easier to understand
than the old code.
This has one user-visible effect: the audit record written for
SECCOMP_RET_TRACE is now a simple indication that SECCOMP_RET_TRACE
happened. It used to depend in a complicated way on what the tracer
did. I couldn't make much sense of it.

The secure_computing function took a syscall number parameter, but
it only paid any attention to that parameter if seccomp mode 1 was
enabled. Rather than coming up with a kludge to get the parameter
to work in mode 2, just remove the parameter.
To avoid churn in arches that don't have seccomp filters (and may
not even support syscall_get_nr right now), this leaves the
parameter in secure_computing_strict, which is now a real function.
For ARM, this is a bit ugly due to the fact that ARM conditionally
supports seccomp filters. Fixing that would probably only be a
couple of lines of code, but it should be coordinated with the audit
maintainers.
This will be a slight slowdown on some arches. The right fix is to
pass in all of seccomp_data instead of trying to make just the
syscall nr part be fast.
This is a prerequisite for making two-phase seccomp work cleanly.

Since commit caeb178c60f4 ("sched/fair: Make update_sd_pick_busiest() ...")
sd_pick_busiest returns a group that can be neither imbalanced nor overloaded
but is only more loaded than others. This change has been introduced to ensure
a better load balance in system that are not overloaded but as a side effect,
it can also generate useless active migration between groups.
Let take the example of 3 tasks on a quad cores system. We will always have an
idle core so the load balance will find a busiest group (core) whenever an ILB
is triggered and it will force an active migration (once above
nr_balance_failed threshold) so the idle core becomes busy but another core
will become idle. With the next ILB, the freshly idle core will try to pull the
task of a busy CPU.
The number of spurious active migration is not so huge in quad core system
because the ILB is not triggered so much. But it becomes significant as soon as
you have more than one sched_domain level like on a dual cluster of quad cores
where the ILB is triggered every tick when you have more than 1 busy_cpu
We need to ensure that the migration generate a real improveùent and will not
only move the avg_load imbalance on another CPU.
Before caeb178c60f4f93f1b45c0bc056b5cf6d217b67f, the filtering of such use
case was ensured by the following test in f_b_g:
if ((local->idle_cpus < busiest->idle_cpus) &&
busiest->sum_nr_running <= busiest->group_weight)
This patch modified the condition to take into account situation where busiest
group is not overloaded: If the diff between the number of idle cpus in 2
groups is less than or equal to 1 and the busiest group is not overloaded,
moving a task will not improve the load balance but just move it.
A test with sysbench on a dual clusters of quad cores gives the following
results:
command: sysbench --test=cpu --num-threads=5 --max-time=5 run
The HZ is 200 which means that 1000 ticks has fired during the test.

read_lock_irqsave(tasklist_lock) in print_rq() looks strange. We do
not need to disable irqs, and they are already disabled by the caller.
And afaics this lock buys nothing, we can rely on rcu_read_lock().
In this case it makes sense to also move rcu_read_lock/unlock from
the caller to print_rq().

task_rq_lock()
1. read_lock(tasklist_lock) does not need to disable irqs.
2. ->mm != NULL is a common mistake, use PF_KTHREAD.
3. The second ->mm check can be simply removed.
4. task_rq_lock() looks better than raw_spin_lock(&p->pi_lock) +
__task_rq_lock().

The code in find_idlest_cpu() looks for the CPU with the smallest load.
However, if multiple CPUs are idle, the first idle CPU is selected
irrespective of the depth of its idle state.
Among the idle CPUs we should pick the one with with the shallowest idle
state, or the latest to have gone idle if all idle CPUs are in the same
state. The later applies even when cpuidle is configured out.
This patch doesn't cover the following issues:
- The idle exit latency of a CPU might be larger than the time needed
to migrate the waking task to an already running CPU with sufficient
capacity, and therefore performance would benefit from task packing
in such case (in most cases task packing is about power saving).
- Some idle states have a non negligible and non abortable entry latency
which needs to run to completion before the exit latency can start.
A concurrent patch series is making this info available to the cpuidle
core. Once available, the entry latency with the idle timestamp could
determine when the exit latency may be effective.
Those issues will be handled in due course. In the mean time, what
is implemented here should improve things already compared to the current
state of affairs.
Based on an initial patch from Daniel Lezcano.

When the cpu enters idle, it stores the cpuidle state pointer in its
struct rq instance which in turn could be used to make a better decision
when balancing tasks.
As soon as the cpu exits its idle state, the struct rq reference is
cleared.
There are a couple of situations where the idle state pointer could be changed
while it is being consulted:
1. For x86/acpi with dynamic c-states, when a laptop switches from battery
to AC that could result on removing the deeper idle state. The acpi driver
triggers:
'acpi_processor_cst_has_changed'
'cpuidle_pause_and_lock'
'cpuidle_uninstall_idle_handler'
'kick_all_cpus_sync'.
All cpus will exit their idle state and the pointed object will be set to
NULL.
2. The cpuidle driver is unloaded. Logically that could happen but not
in practice because the drivers are always compiled in and 95% of them are
not coded to unregister themselves. In any case, the unloading code must
call 'cpuidle_unregister_device', that calls 'cpuidle_pause_and_lock'
leading to 'kick_all_cpus_sync' as mentioned above.
A race can happen if we use the pointer and then one of these two scenarios
occurs at the same moment.
In order to be safe, the idle state pointer stored in the rq must be
used inside a rcu_read_lock section where we are protected with the
'rcu_barrier' in the 'cpuidle_uninstall_idle_handler' function. The
idle_get_state() and idle_put_state() accessors should be used to that
effect.

Users can perform clustered scheduling using the cpuset facility.
After an exclusive cpuset is created, task migrations happen only
between CPUs belonging to the same cpuset. Inter- cpuset migrations
can only happen when the user requires so, moving a task between
different cpusets. This behaviour is broken in SCHED_DEADLINE, as
currently spurious inter- cpuset migration may happen without user
intervention.
This patch fix the problem (and shuffles the code a bit to improve
clarity).

When a task is using SCHED_DEADLINE and the user setschedules it to a
different class its sched_dl_entity static parameters are not cleaned
up. This causes a bug if the user sets it back to SCHED_DEADLINE with
the same parameters again. The problem resides in the check we
perform at the very beginning of dl_overflow():
if (new_bw == p->dl.dl_bw)
return 0;
This condition is met in the case depicted above, so the function
returns and dl_b->total_bw is not updated (the p->dl.dl_bw is not
added to it). After this, admission control is broken.
This patch fixes the thing, properly clearing static parameters for a
task that ceases to use SCHED_DEADLINE.

current->state == TASK_DEAD means that the task is doing its
last schedule(), page fault is obviously impossible at this
stage.

Currently the task always wakes affine on this_cpu if the latter is idle.
Before waking up the task on this_cpu, we check that this_cpu capacity is not
significantly reduced because of RT tasks or irq activity.
Use case where the number of irq and/or the time spent under irq is important
will take benefit of this because the task that is woken up by irq or softirq
will not use the same CPU than irq (and softirq) but a idle one.

'capacity_orig' is only changed for systems with an SMT sched_domain level in order
to reflect the lower capacity of CPUs. Heterogenous systems also have to reflect an
original capacity that is different from the default value.
Create a more generic function arch_scale_cpu_capacity that can be also used by
non SMT platforms to set capacity_orig.
The __weak implementation of arch_scale_cpu_capacity() is the previous SMT variant,
in order to keep backward compatibility with the use of capacity_orig.
arch_scale_smt_capacity() and default_scale_smt_capacity() have been removed as
they were not used elsewhere than in arch_scale_cpu_capacity().

The computation of avg_load and avg_load_per_task should only take into
account the number of CFS tasks. The non-CFS tasks are already taken into
account by decreasing the CPU's capacity and they will be tracked in the
CPU's utilization (group_utilization) of the next patches.
